Disease Mapping: From Foundations to Multidimensional Modeling
guides the reader from the basics of disease mapping to the most
advanced topics in this field. A multidimensional framework is
offered that makes possible the joint modeling of several risks
patterns corresponding to combinations of several factors,
including age group, time period, disease, etc. Although theory
will be covered, the applied component will be equally as important
with lots of practical examples offered. Features: Discusses the
very latest developments on multivariate and multidimensional
mapping. Gives a single state-of-the-art framework that unifies
most of the previously proposed disease mapping approaches.
Balances epidemiological and statistical points-of-view. Requires
no previous knowledge of disease mapping. Includes practical
sessions at the end of each chapter with WinBUGs/INLA and real
world datasets. Supplies R code for the examples in the book so
that they can be reproduced by the reader. About the Authors:
Miguel A. Martinez Beneito has spent his whole career working as a
statistician for public health services, first at the epidemiology
unit of the Valencia (Spain) regional health administration and
later as a researcher at the public health division of FISABIO, a
regional bio-sanitary research center. He has been also the
Bayesian Hierarchical Models professor for several seasons at the
University of Valencia Biostatics Master. Paloma Botella Rocamora
has spent most of her professional career in academia although she
now works as a statistician for the epidemiology unit of the
Valencia regional health administration. Most of her research has
been devoted to developing and applying disease mapping models to
real data, although her work as a statistician in an epidemiology
unit makes her develop and apply statistical methods to health
data, in general.
